Litigation

In spite of your best efforts, a current employee, former employee or job candidate may allege that your company violated one or more federal, state or local employment laws. When you are facing this type of allegation, it is critical to work with a knowledgeable, skilled employment law attorney who can help defend your interests and protect your business’ reputation.

The employment law team at Hamra Law Group represents employers against all types of employment litigation claims. Every case is different, so we take a customized, results-oriented approach for each business we represent.

Because the underlying laws and regulations governing the employer/employee relationship are broad, complex and sometimes overlap, employment litigation can touch on any number of – or any combination of – those laws and rules. When you choose to work with Hamra Law Group, you will have the resources of experienced attorneys and legal professionals who understand this legal framework and how the laws are interconnected.

Some of the types of employment law matters for which we provide representation include the following:

• • Employment Discrimination – When an employee or candidate alleges your business violated the law by discriminating on the basis of gender, race, national origin, age or disability, you need a firm that is well-versed in Equal Employment Opportunity rules and in civil rights complaints. Our attorneys have this knowledge and experience.
  • Sexual Harassment – When workplace harassment is alleged, employers need skilled legal counsel in their corner. If you need a sexual harassment defense attorney, we can help.
  • Retaliation or Wrongful Discharge – Employers charged with wrongfully terminating an employee or with other retaliatory actions can face stiff consequences. We will work with you to build the strongest possible defense under the circumstances.
  • Contractual Claims – We also help employers who are the subject of lawsuits related to employment agreements, non-competition agreements, non-solicitation agreements, non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements and other types of restrictive covenants.
  • Regulatory Agency and Government Regulations – Our attorneys also represent clients in litigation matters brought by regulatory authorities or related to industry regulations.

Our goal as employment law attorneys is to avoid disputes or litigation, first and foremost. However, when claims arise, we are committed to helping resolve employment law matters favorably for the businesses we represent.

Whether a claim is brought in state court, federal court, through a state or federal agency, or through an arbitration or mediation forum, our focus is on asserting every possible defense to protect our clients’ rights.

The employment litigation attorneys at Hamra Law Group are committed to providing dedicated, skilled representation, to ensure communications are clear and consistent, and to offering fair and transparent billing practices. When you choose to work with us, you’ll get the same depth of legal knowledge you would expect in a large law firm, offered through a boutique firm model.
